Wednesday Walkers

WW 24th June 2026

 

So, where to go on a sultry, humid evening with no wind ?
Grenofen Bridge! that's where.
Under the trees, next to the river, relatively level. Perfecto !!
All went well,  the world, his family and pet dogs, all enjoying the coolness of an evening dip in the River Walkham before it joined the Tavy at Double waters.
The steep bit by Buckator was surprisingly not too bad and the track levelled out until breaking out through the rocks to Double Waters.
Off with shoes and socks and feet in water whilst refreshment taken.
Ah bliss!!
A few midges about but the fish weren't jumping and it was too early for bats.
Even the babies (fish) weren't interested in our feet like they usually are.
Quick discussion as to whether to return over the bridge and up hill or return the way we came.
We thought there was a fire but 'twas only a BBQ next to the river.
Most exciting thing of interest was a shiny Dung beetle or Dor beetle trying to rock a dollup of dog poo backwards and forwards. It gave up after a while and scuttled off in a proper strop.
So a rather pleasant evening.

You really do have to be there ...
